Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of data center technology, and in particular to a computer room module and a data center. Background Technology

[0002] A data center module refers to a modular, integrated product that combines all the functions of a data center. In other words, all the functions of a data center are integrated into one module, and this module can be regarded as a data center. This module is also called a data center module or a data center module.

[0003] Traditional data center modules typically employ conventional structural forms such as steel or reinforced concrete structures. After the main structure is completed at the project site, server racks, power distribution equipment, and other components are installed within the main structure to form the data center module. This type of data center module has a long construction cycle and is not environmentally friendly. To overcome these drawbacks, the industry has adopted fully prefabricated integrated data center modules. That is, the data center modules are manufactured and processed in a factory, and then transported to the project site for direct use.

[0004] However, the fully prefabricated data center modules require multiple hoisting and transportation operations before they can be delivered to the project site. These repeated hoisting and transportation processes, coupled with the complex conditions involved, make the data center modules highly susceptible to deformation and damage to the integrated equipment, such as server racks, already embedded within them. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a data center module and a data center. The data center module includes a steel structure frame and temporary steel supports. The temporary steel supports reinforce the steel structure frame, effectively preventing deformation of the steel structure frame during hoisting and transportation, effectively protecting the integrated equipment in the data center module, and achieving the goal of improving the safety of the data center module during hoisting and transportation.

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a computer room module, including: a steel structure frame 1 and multiple temporary steel supports 2, wherein the steel structure frame 1 includes a top main beam 11, a top secondary beam 12, a column 13, a bottom main beam 14 and a bottom secondary beam 15, the top secondary beams 12 are spaced apart between two parallel top main beams 11, the top main beams 11 and the top secondary beams 12 form a top frame, the bottom secondary beams 15 are spaced apart between two parallel bottom main beams 14, the bottom main beams 14 and the bottom secondary beams 15 form a bottom frame, the top frame and the bottom frame are opposite to each other, and the column 13 is disposed between the top frame and the bottom frame;

[0007] The top main beam 11 is provided with a plurality of first connectors 111, and the bottom main beam 14 is provided with a plurality of second connectors 141. There is a second connector 141 between every two adjacent first connectors 111. One end of the temporary steel support 2 is connected to the first connector 111, and the other end of the temporary steel support 2 is connected to the second connector 141. Two adjacent temporary steel supports 2 are connected to the same first connector 111 or the same second connector 141.

[0008] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a data center having a server room area, wherein the server room area is provided with server room modules as described in the first aspect or various possible implementations of the first aspect.

[0009] The data center module and data center provided in this application embodiment include a steel structure frame and multiple temporary steel supports. The steel structure frame includes a top frame, a bottom frame, and columns, with the columns positioned between the top and bottom frames. The top frame includes a top main beam and a top secondary beam, spaced apart between two parallel top main beams. The bottom frame includes a bottom main beam and a bottom secondary beam, spaced apart between two parallel bottom main beams. Multiple first connectors are provided on the top main beams, and multiple second connectors are provided on the bottom main beams. A second connector is located between every two adjacent first connectors. The two ends of the temporary steel supports are connected to the first and second connectors, respectively, and two temporary steel supports are connected to the same first or second connector. In this scheme, temporary steel supports are connected to the top main beam via a first connector and to the bottom main beam via a second connector. These temporary steel supports are connected sequentially, forming a truss beam with the top and bottom main beams of the steel structure frame. This temporary reinforcement of the truss beam effectively reduces deformation of the steel structure frame during transportation and hoisting. Furthermore, the steel structure frame effectively resists horizontal forces during transportation and hoisting, preventing swaying due to excessive weight during transport and thus avoiding destructive deformation of the data center module. This effectively protects the integrated equipment within the data center module, meets the transportation requirements of data center modules under complex road conditions, and enables multiple overall transfers of the data center module while maintaining its structural integrity, usability, and safety.

[0020] A data center typically has at least one server room module. The traditional approach to setting up a server room module on-site involves constructing the main structure of the module using conventional structural forms such as steel or reinforced concrete. After this initial construction, all integrated equipment is then installed within the main structure, resulting in a server room module that integrates all the functions of a single server room. This construction method suffers from several delivery issues, including long construction periods, environmentally unfriendly construction processes, unreliable construction quality, lengthy equipment commissioning cycles, and high costs.

[0021] To achieve rapid delivery of data center modules, fully prefabricated integrated modules are typically used. However, these modules are enormous, making transportation difficult and dangerous, and highly susceptible to causing irreparable damage to the installed integrated equipment. Furthermore, when transportation routes include both land and sea transport, the impact of multiple transfers and hoisting operations, tipping prevention, rain protection, and moisture protection must be considered.

[0022] Currently, due to a lack of experience in hoisting and transportation, data center modules are often severely damaged during hoisting and transport, increasing on-site repair workload. Severely damaged and irreparable modules significantly impact data center delivery. To address this issue, many manufacturers disassemble data center modules before transportation. However, this disassembly results in lower module integration, hindering high-quality and rapid delivery.

[0023] Based on this, embodiments of this application provide a data center module and a data center. The data center module includes a steel structure frame and temporary steel supports. The temporary steel supports reinforce the steel structure frame, effectively preventing deformation of the steel structure frame during hoisting and transportation, effectively protecting the integrated equipment integrated in the data center module, and achieving the goal of improving the safety of the data center module during hoisting and transportation.

[0024] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the steel structure frame of the computer room module according to an embodiment of this application. Please refer to... Figure 1 The steel structure frame 1 includes two parallel top main beams 11, several top secondary beams 12, several columns 13, two parallel bottom main beams 14, and several bottom secondary beams 15. The top secondary beams 12 are spaced apart between the two parallel top main beams 11, forming a top frame. The bottom secondary beams 15 are spaced apart between the two parallel bottom main beams 14, forming a bottom frame. The top frame and the bottom frame are opposite each other, and the columns 13 are located between the top frame and the bottom frame.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 To ensure the prefabrication and integration of the data center modules and achieve the overall transportation of the fully prefabricated and integrated data center modules, this embodiment of the application includes a non-standard sized, high-strength steel structure frame 1. This steel structure frame 1 can fully integrate the integrated equipment required for a complete data center module within its interior, ensuring sufficient space for operation and maintenance after all equipment is integrated. The integrated equipment required for a complete data center module includes, but is not limited to, server racks, power distribution equipment, air conditioning equipment, intelligent equipment, pipelines and their cable trays, cables, and decorative equipment.

[0026] The customized steel frame 1 serves as the shell for various equipment within the data center module. It is a non-standard sized, high-strength steel frame. The dimensions need to be confirmed based on the number of devices to be installed. The steel components and nodes that make up the steel frame 1 are simulated using structural finite element analysis software to ensure the safe use of the data center module under normal operating conditions, transportation conditions, and hoisting conditions.

[0027] On the bottom secondary beam 15 of the aforementioned steel structure frame 1, the equipment support required for the equipment cabinet is welded and installed. The equipment support is provided with several bolt holes. The mounting holes for the equipment cabinet are reserved in advance, so that the equipment cabinet installation does not require on-site drilling, no iron filings are generated, the equipment cabinet is avoided from being contaminated, and the installation efficiency is greatly improved.

[0028] Optionally, the equipment cabinets, enclosed passageway components, raised floors, etc. required for the computer room module can be installed on the equipment support.

[0029] Optionally, the strength of the top main beam 11, top secondary beam 12, column 13, bottom main beam 14 and bottom secondary beam 15 shall not be lower than Q355B, so as to ensure the overall strength of the steel structure frame 1 and the non-yielding of local nodes.

[0030] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the data center module provided in an embodiment of this application. Please refer to... Figure 2 Multiple first connectors 111 are provided on the top main beam 11, and multiple second connectors 141 are provided on the bottom main beam 14. There is a second connector 141 between every two adjacent first connectors 111. One end of the temporary steel support 2 is connected to the first connector 111, and the other end of the temporary steel support 2 is connected to the second connector 141. Two adjacent temporary steel supports 2 are connected to the same first connector 111 or second connector 141.

[0031] For example, under normal use, the bottom frame of the data center module is in full contact with the building's floor slab, and the distance between support points is much smaller than that under transportation and hoisting conditions. Therefore, under normal use, the steel frame of the data center module does not require additional reinforcement, and the equipment cabinets and termination cables can accommodate the module's deformation. However, under transportation and hoisting conditions, the data center module typically only has four corner points as support points or hoisting points (e.g., ...). Figure 2 As shown in the lifting point 143, the stress pattern differs from that of the normal operating state of the computer room module, and the deformation of the bottom frame is much greater than that caused by the stress under normal operating conditions. Among them, lifting point 143 is used to connect with the lifting device 1000 and is the stress point.

[0032] Therefore, in this embodiment, multiple first connectors 111 are provided on the top main beam 11 of the steel structure frame 1, and multiple second connectors 141 are provided on the bottom main beam 14. Multiple temporary steel supports 2 are used to connect the first connectors 111 and the adjacent second connectors 141, thereby forming a truss beam with the temporary steel supports 2, the top main beam 11, and the bottom main beam 14 of the steel structure frame 1. This truss beam acts as a reinforcement measure, effectively reducing the deformation of the steel structure frame during transportation and hoisting, and improving the safety of the computer room module hoisting and transportation.

[0033] It is understood that the first connector 111 and the second connector 141 can be connectors with the same structure. However, for the sake of clarity, the connector set on the top main beam 11 is referred to as the first connector 111, and the connector set on the bottom main beam 14 is referred to as the second connector 141.

[0034] The data center module provided in this application includes a steel structure frame and multiple temporary steel supports. The steel structure frame includes a top frame, a bottom frame, and columns, with the columns positioned between the top and bottom frames. The top frame includes a top main beam and a top secondary beam, spaced apart between two parallel top main beams. The bottom frame includes a bottom main beam and a bottom secondary beam, spaced apart between two parallel bottom main beams. Multiple first connectors are provided on the top main beams, and multiple second connectors are provided on the bottom main beams. Each pair of adjacent first connectors is connected to a second connector. The two ends of each temporary steel support are connected to a first connector and a second connector, respectively, and two temporary steel supports are connected to the same first connector or second connector. In this scheme, temporary steel supports are connected to the top main beam via a first connector and to the bottom main beam via a second connector. These temporary steel supports are connected sequentially, forming a truss beam with the top and bottom main beams of the steel structure frame. This temporary reinforcement of the truss beam effectively reduces deformation of the steel structure frame during transportation and hoisting. Furthermore, the steel structure frame effectively resists horizontal forces during transportation and hoisting, preventing swaying due to excessive weight during transport and thus avoiding destructive deformation of the data center module. This effectively protects the integrated equipment within the data center module, meets the transportation requirements of data center modules under complex road conditions, and enables multiple overall transfers of the data center module while maintaining its structural integrity, usability, and safety.

[0035] Optionally, in the above embodiments, to ensure the scale of the computer room module, the length of the steel structure frame 1 is generally greater than 6 meters. At the same time, to prevent deformation of the steel structure frame 1, the length is controlled at 12 meters, that is, the length of the steel structure frame 1 is less than 12 meters.

[0036] To ensure the complete installation of the two rows of equipment cabinets 144 in the computer room module and to design the enclosed passageway component 142, the width of the steel structure frame 1 is generally greater than 3.6 meters. However, due to road transportation limitations, the width of the steel structure frame 1 is not greater than 4.5 meters.

[0037] To ensure sufficient space for cable management at the top of the equipment cabinets in the computer room, accommodating the installation of cable trays and other components, the height of the steel structure frame 1 is generally no less than 3.6 meters. Due to road transport limitations, the height of the steel structure frame 1 is no more than 4.15 meters.

[0038] Optionally, in the above embodiments, the steel structure frame 1 is an open space without enclosed metal enclosures, and the computer room module contains numerous cable trays and cables. To prevent rainwater, water vapor, sea waves, etc. from entering the computer room module during transportation, the entire module is transported in sealed packaging with an IPX4 rating or higher.

[0039] The following description uses a steel structure frame 1 with a length × width × height of 12 meters × 4.5 meters × 4.15 meters as an example to illustrate the computer room module described in this application embodiment.

[0040] Optionally, in the above embodiment, ear plates 21 are respectively provided at both ends of the temporary steel support 2, bolt connection holes 112 are provided on the top main beam 11, the first connector 111 is fixed on the top main beam 11 through the bolt connection holes 112, the bottom main beam 14 is provided with bolt connection holes 112, and the second connector 141 is fixed on the bottom main beam 14 through the bolt connection holes 112.

[0041] Figure 3 yes Figure 2 A magnified view of point A in the middle. Please refer to... Figure 3 This application employs temporary steel supports 2 with full bolt connections to reinforce the steel structure frame 1. The temporary steel supports 2 have dedicated connecting lugs 21 at both ends, and the steel structure frame 1 is equipped with dedicated connectors, namely the aforementioned first connector 111 and second connector 141. Bolt connection holes 112 are provided on the top main beam 11 and the bottom main beam 14. Two adjacent temporary steel supports 2 share the same first connector 111 or second connector 141, thus allowing adjacent temporary steel supports 2 to be connected by bolts. The sequentially connected temporary steel supports 2 and the top main beam 11 and bottom main beam 14 of the steel structure frame 1 form a truss beam. This truss beam can effectively reduce the deformation of the steel structure frame during hoisting and transportation.

[0042] With this approach, the temporary steel supports, the first connector, and the second connector are all bolted together, allowing for easy disassembly of the computer room module after installation without the need for welding. This greatly ensures the safety of the integrated equipment already embedded in the steel structure frame.

[0043] Optionally, in the above embodiment, the two bottom main beams 14 correspond to a row of equipment cabinets 144 respectively, and the two rows of equipment cabinets 144 are connected by a closed channel assembly 142. The closed channel assembly 142 is a cold closed channel assembly or a hot closed channel assembly, and a cable tray 121 is integrated below the top secondary beam 12.

[0044] Figure 4 This is a plan view of the data center module provided in an embodiment of this application. Please refer to... Figure 4In this embodiment, the steel structure frame 1 is a non-standard sized, high-strength steel structure frame. The steel structure frame 1 must ensure that all equipment, cabinets, cable trays, cables, etc., required for a fully functional data center module are completely integrated within it, and that there is sufficient space for maintenance and repair after all equipment is integrated. Two rows of equipment cabinets 144 are arranged along the two main bottom beams 14, such as row head cabinets 145 and 146, which are the row head cabinets of the two rows of equipment cabinets 144 respectively. The equipment cabinets 144 include, but are not limited to, row head cabinets, air conditioning distribution boxes, IT cabinets, and near-end air conditioners. A closed aisle assembly 142 is located between the two rows of equipment cabinets 144. This closed aisle assembly 142 is either a cold-sealed aisle assembly or a hot-sealed aisle assembly.

[0045] Optional, Figure 4 In the middle, the equipment cabinet 144 includes various near-end refrigeration equipment, such as in-row air conditioners and near-end air walls.

[0046] This solution features two rows of equipment cabinets and enclosed aisle components inside the computer room module. It is suitable for cold aisle enclosure, hot aisle enclosure, and reserved hot return air aisle, making it widely applicable and highly adaptable.

[0047] Optionally, in the above embodiments, an integrated cable tray 121 is installed below the top secondary beam 12.

[0048] Figure 5 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the data center module provided in an embodiment of this application. Please refer to... Figure 5 Below the top and second beams 12 of the aforementioned steel structure frame 1, various cable trays 121 and their hangers are installed. The cable trays 121 include, but are not limited to, power cable trays 121-1, network fiber optic cable trays 121-2, and intelligent cable trays 121-3. The steel structure frame 1 provides sufficient installation and maintenance space for each layer of cable trays 121 and their wiring according to the aforementioned height.

[0049] With this approach, sufficient space is reserved at the top of the equipment cabinet of the data center module to integrate the cable trays and necessary hangers under the top and secondary beams, providing ample installation and maintenance space, resulting in a simple structure and high integration of the data center module.

[0050] Figure 6 This is a plan view of the bottom frame of the data center module provided in this embodiment. Please refer to... Figure 6 Optionally, in the above embodiment, at least three container corner pieces 5 are respectively provided on both sides of the centerline in the width direction of the steel structure frame 1, and a notch for installing the container corner pieces 5 is provided on the bottom secondary beam 15, and the container corner pieces 5 are welded to the notch.

[0051] In this embodiment, the maximum volume of the data center module is 12 meters × 4.5 meters × 4.15 meters, and its weight exceeds 20 tons. To facilitate the overall transportation of the data center module, based on the type of flatbed truck used for transporting the module, in this embodiment, at least three container corner brackets 5 are respectively installed on both sides of the centerline 17 in the width direction of the steel structure frame. In one approach, at a position 1.5 meters from the centerline 17 in the width direction of the steel structure frame 1, such as... Figure 6 As shown, at least three standard container corner fittings are provided on each side.

[0052] In another approach, at least three container corner fittings are installed on each side at a distance of 1.2 meters from the centerline 17 in the width direction of the steel structure frame 1. This solution is compatible with standard container transport vehicles, applicable to a wide range of vehicle types, reduces transport restrictions, and lowers transport costs.

[0053] In order to install the container corner bracket 5 on the bottom secondary beam 15, in this embodiment of the application, a notch for installing the container corner bracket 5 is laser-cut into the bottom secondary beam 15 of the steel structure frame. The container corner bracket 5 is fully penetrated welded to the bottom secondary beam 15 to ensure weld quality and load-bearing performance.

[0054] By adopting this solution and installing container corner fittings on the bottom secondary beam, the machine room module can be transported by various vehicle types, thereby reducing transportation costs.

[0055] Optionally, in the above embodiment, a horizontal support 6 is provided between the container corner piece 5 on one side of the centerline 17 in the width direction of the steel structure frame 1 and the container corner piece 5 on the other side, which is located on different bottom secondary beams 15.

[0056] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 The bottom frame of steel structure frame 1 is a parallelogram, meaning the bottom frame composed of the bottom main beam 14 and the bottom secondary beam 15 is an unstable parallelogram. Furthermore, the integrated equipment cabinets, electronic devices, cable terminals, and other integrated equipment within the steel structure frame are highly sensitive to structural deformation.

[0057] In order to prevent the bottom frame from deforming and thus damaging the integrated equipment, in this embodiment of the application, an appropriate number of horizontal supports 6 are provided on the bottom frame. These horizontal supports 6 and the bottom frame constitute a stable support system, and the steel structure of the horizontal supports 6 and the bottom frame are fully penetrated welded, thereby ensuring that the bottom frame is not easily deformed during transportation.

[0058] This approach, by enhancing the rigidity of the bottom frame, significantly reduces deformation caused by various transportation conditions, preventing loosening or damage to integrated equipment already embedded in the steel structure frame, and improving the safety of the data center modules under various transportation conditions.

[0059] Normally, non-standard sized containers are not allowed to be stacked during shipping and can only be stacked in a single layer. To avoid this drawback, optionally, in the above embodiment, the machine room module also includes a lock 7, one end of which is connected to the machine room module, and the other end of which is connected to an anchor point 2000. The anchor point 2000 is set on the deck 3000 of the transport device, and adjacent machine room modules 100 are connected by a third connector 8.

[0060] Figure 7 This is a stacked elevation view of the data center modules provided in this embodiment. Please refer to... Figure 7 Each floor's computer room modules are connected via Figure 2 The temporary steel support 2 shown is used for reinforcement. Furthermore, the stacked machine room modules 100 are secured together by a third connector 8. Each machine room module 100 has a locking device, which is anchored to the anchoring point 2000 on the deck 3000 of the transport device. The transport device may be, for example, a vehicle, a ship, etc., and this embodiment is not limited thereto.

[0061] Figure 7 In this process, the number of stacked layers is less than the preset number of layers, such as 5. Stacking of 2 to 5 layers can be achieved by setting locks for connecting anchor points on the deck.

[0062] This approach, by installing locks and deck anchoring on the data center modules, allows for multi-layer stacking of the modules during shipping, effectively reducing the number of vessels required for transport and thus lowering the transportation costs of the data center modules.

[0063] The aforementioned steel structure frame, due to its internal integration of server equipment, cabinets, etc., is highly susceptible to damage during transport. This is due to factors such as vehicle starting and braking, road bumps during land transport, and ship tilting, rolling, and capsizing caused by wind and waves during sea transport. To prevent damage to the integrated equipment, the aforementioned data center module optionally includes a sheet metal support 3. Bolt holes are provided at the ends of the sheet metal support 3. One end of the sheet metal support 3 connects to the steel structure frame 1, and the other end connects to the integrated equipment inside the steel structure frame 1. Furthermore, vibration-damping rubber pads 4 are installed between the sheet metal support 3 and the steel structure frame 1, and between the sheet metal support 3 and the integrated equipment.

[0064] Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the sheet metal support for the data center module provided in this embodiment. Please refer to... Figure 8In this embodiment, a temporary, detachable sheet metal support 3 is used to protect the integrated equipment. The integrated equipment refers to equipment already integrated inside the steel frame 1, including but not limited to server cabinets, cable trays, and cables. The sheet metal support 3 has a thickness greater than or equal to 3 mm, and a length and width greater than or equal to 50 mm. Bolt holes, for example, bolt holes with a specification of not less than M8, are provided at the ends of the sheet metal support 3. Corresponding bolt holes are also provided on the top secondary beam 12 connected to the integrated equipment, and nuts of corresponding specifications are provided on the back of the top secondary beam 12 and the integrated equipment. After the integrated equipment is installed into the steel frame 1, it is then installed using the sheet metal support 3, ensuring a reliable connection between the integrated equipment and the steel frame. Furthermore, vibration-damping rubber pads are provided between the sheet metal support 3 and the steel frame 1, and between the sheet metal support 3 and the integrated equipment, thereby enhancing the cushioning effect and preventing damage such as bumps and paint chipping from the sheet metal support and the integrated equipment during transportation due to rigid connections.

[0065] This approach utilizes sheet metal supports between the steel frame and the integrated unit to ensure a reliable connection between the integrated equipment and the steel frame, thereby protecting the integrated equipment during transportation.

[0066] Optionally, in the above embodiments, after the temporary reinforcement measures are implemented for the data center module, the steel structure frame 1 and the integrated equipment inside it are capable of resisting the external forces generated during transportation and hoisting. However, the steel structure frame 1 integrates a large number of electrical equipment and metal components, and since the steel structure frame 1 is an open space without enclosed metal enclosures, and the data center module contains numerous cable trays and cables, rainwater, water vapor, and sea waves can easily enter the data center module during transportation, thereby corroding the electrical equipment and metal components inside the steel structure frame 1. The electrical equipment includes, but is not limited to, cabinets, distribution boxes, and power distribution units (PDUs), while the metal components include, but are not limited to, cabinets, cable trays, enclosed aisle components, and necessary fasteners.

[0067] To prevent rainwater, water vapor, and sea waves from entering the computer room module during transportation, in this embodiment, a wrapping film 27 is installed on the equipment cabinet 144 integrated within the steel structure frame 1. The exterior of the steel structure frame 1 is sequentially wrapped with a rainproof film 22, wooden boards 23, and a mesh fabric assembly 24. Cotton corner protectors 25 are installed between the rainproof film 22 and the wooden boards 23 at the corners of the steel structure frame 1. The wooden boards 23 are installed on all surfaces except the bottom of the steel structure frame 1. The bottom of the steel structure frame 1 is a sealed galvanized steel plate.

[0068] Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the overall packaging of the data center module provided in this embodiment. Please refer to... Figure 9 When transporting the entire data center module, firstly, all integrated equipment within the module is sealed using stretch film 27. Stretch film 27 is, for example, polyethylene (PE) film. For any protruding areas at the top, the stretch film 27 is perforated at the corresponding location, and waterproof tape is applied around the perimeter for localized reinforcement.

[0069] Optional, please refer to Figure 9 The aforementioned data center module is sealed with an integrated six-sided rainproof membrane 22. Before installing the rainproof membrane, desiccant is placed inside the data center module and equipment cabinet 144, with the desiccant ratio adjusted according to the transportation and storage time. Furthermore, after the rainproof membrane 22 is installed, an air extraction process is performed to ensure that the rainproof membrane 22 adheres tightly to the data center module without loosening, and then the edges are sealed using heat fusion.

[0070] After the rainproof membrane 22 is installed, cotton corner protectors (25), such as pearl cotton corner protectors, are installed at the corners of the steel structure frame 1 to ensure that the rainproof membrane 22 is not damaged during hoisting or transportation. Then, wooden boards 23 specifically designed for marine applications are used to seal the steel structure frame 1. Since the bottom of the steel structure frame 1 is sealed with galvanized steel sheet 26 during production and welding, only five sides of the computer room module need to be covered with wooden boards 23, thus reducing operational difficulty and manufacturing costs.

[0071] Optionally, since the back of the wooden board 23 is not supported, in this embodiment of the application, wooden purlins are used to reinforce the surface of the wooden board 23, thereby reducing the required thickness of the target 23 and the deformation during transportation, and reducing the manufacturing cost of the sealed package.

[0072] Optionally, sheet metal parts are installed at the bottom of the steel frame 1. The sheet metal parts are fixed to the bottom of the wooden planks by ropes, thereby effectively reducing the vibration and deformation of the wooden planks 23 during transportation.

[0073] Optionally, the wooden board 23 is wrapped with a mesh fabric assembly 24, which serves as the outermost layer of packaging. This mesh fabric assembly 24 is, for example, a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) mesh fabric assembly. By using the mesh fabric assembly 24, it is possible to effectively prevent external rainwater, seawater, and other contaminants from entering the computer room module.

[0074] This approach involves sealing the data center modules during the entire transportation process, effectively preventing external elements such as rainwater, water vapor, and ocean waves from entering the data center modules.

[0075] Optionally, in the above embodiments, the mesh fabric assembly 24 includes an upper assembly 241 and a lower assembly 242, the upper assembly 241 covering the lower assembly 242, and the upper assembly 241 and the lower assembly 242 having openings for exposing the hanging points.

[0076] Please refer to the following: Figure 9 The data center module uses a mesh fabric assembly 24 as the outermost packaging. The mesh fabric assembly 24 includes an upper assembly 241 and a lower assembly 242. These two assemblies can be opened at the designated lifting points for the data center module, and each assembly has pre-drilled holes for guy ropes. During installation, the lower assembly 242 is installed first, and then connected and secured to the wooden board 23 using steel wire ropes. Next, the upper assembly 242 is slipped over the lower assembly 241. Then, guy ropes are used for securing the assembly. This securing effectively reduces the swaying of the outer mesh fabric assembly 24 due to wind, effectively reducing the risk of rainwater and seawater entering the packaging.

[0077] Optionally, based on the above-described data center module, this application embodiment also provides a data center having a data center area, and at least one data center module as described above is provided within the data center area.
